What are other countries' version of Superman?

I don't mean in term of power sets or even being comic super-heroes, just iconic heroes who (attempt) to personify and iconify the principles of a nation.

Comic industry in Poland is pretty much non-existent, but we have one superhero, Biały Orzeł (White Eagle). He has Superman-like powers, but overall is more akin to Batman and Captain America.

I will be pretty direct, Superman has never personify the principles of a nation. And i'm pretty sure you don't know what "nation" means.

Superman stood for the American dream in a way, but the whole American way stuff was just part publicity, never reflected in the character.

Superman believe it or not is a western archetype.

The idea Superman represents american values is insane, since america lacks values and the nation is pluricultural.

Feel free to axtually read what you posted, Boston Catholics are not the same as Texas's german protestants.

America just like the Brits are historically "the bad guys" just as you see the chinks or the kruts as evil that's the historical impact of Murrika, Superman doesnt represent america, superma is the good heroic guy.

It's funny how much of an edgelord Garth Ennis can be also while also totally getting the point of Superman. It's a crime he never got to write a book starring him.

Great argument there, at least there's no doubt that anyone saying that can't actually answer it.

He literally is an embodiment of american ideals. He is a champion of Truth, Justice, and the American Way.

>>89841787
But those are not American ideals and that is a tag line of a radio series.

He gets that superman is an immigrant and the american dream stuff, but the rest of that page is retarded, it's pretty funny when americans that that page and actually believe it has some sort of depth, everything he says about America is wrong, and when is about superman? Silver Age was a kryptonboo.

Garth Ennis has likely never read much Superman. I don't know why this page is paraded around for describing Superman.

>implying it's just the immigrants fault for not joining the melting pot

Let's be honest, there's a few states in America that need to join as well. Cults and private communes are also a real fucking problem in your country, and the size of suburbs in relation to how long it takes to get anywhere via a method that isn't car is a little absurd,

Also, John Constantine. He's depressed, he's self-deprecating, he smokes, he's from Liverpool. He's the british icon.

>What are other countries' version of Superman?

We don't HAVE "versions of Superman". Just what your country owns.

That's why you have to stop being whiny little white shitlords and just learn to share via diversitification and globalization, because if there's one thing that could take this away from the verge of creative bankruptcy, that's it.

Suck it up. You're not being "oppressed".

Why the edge? No one is saying America is perfect, but for more than a century this country was a beacon of hope for generations of poor/oppressed people all around the world and offered REAL opportunities to any man that can work hard enough.
Shit's nothing to sneeze at anon
